Adds a new chapter 131 to Title 5 of the U.S. Code and makes a set of technical and conforming edits. It updates Title 5’s table of sections, removes a repeated phrase in several paragraphs of 5 U.S.C. §13103(f), and revises wording in the Lobbying Disclosure Act to refer to an “officer or employee of Congress.”
The changes are largely codification and word-choice fixes intended to clean up statutory text and to align terminology; they create minor legal/administrative adjustments for agencies, congressional offices, and entities covered by the Lobbying Disclosure Act rather than establishing new programs or spending.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.
